Operating and SafetyInstructions

***Do not operate dock without studying the operating andsafety instructions first***

1. Be sure to check all the nuts and tighten all that require tightening. Check the cable, winch,tires and support posts to make sure that they are all in operating condition. Be sure to checkthese points yearly.

2. When operating the winch, never let go of the winch handle. Never try to stop the handle ifit does spin uncontrollably.

3. Make sure that all the set screws are tightened tight so the posts do not slip. But, nevertighten the set screws too tight as to where it makes indents in the support posts.

4. Never overload the number of people and weight on the dock at one time. This is to avoidinjury and damage to property.

5. When adjusting the height of the dock while on the water, make sure that no one is on thedock.

6. If there is resistance when raising or lowering the dock, it is more than likely the posts arebinding in the brackets. Stop winching and go the opposite direction that before until the bind isfree.

7. For yearly maintenance be sure to grease the moving parts of the winch.

8. When the winch is not in use, place in storage. This is to prevent any injury, damage to thewinch or theft.

9. Never lower the winch to where there is less than three spins of cable. This is so the cablewon’t slip out causing the dock to fall.

Procedure 1*For the assembly of the straight dock see procedure 1A.*For the assembly of a dock with a 8’ x 12’ deck, a 4’ x 8’ T,see procedure 1B.

(Step 1) Lay the 4’ x 16’ dock section and the 4’ x 8’ section on the ground, the 4’ x 8’ sectionshould be on the side you prefer to have the deck on. After you lay the two sections together, usetwo 3/8” x 1” bolts to fasten the front end of the dock together. If your dock contains a 4’ x 8’section as part of the overall length, (example: 4’ x 24’,4’ x 40’,4’ x 56’ etc.), bolt the two 4’ x 8’sections side by side on the lake end of the dock.

Procedure 1B(4’ x 12’ deck) Lay the 4’ x 16’ dock section on the ground and place the two 4’ x 8’ sectionsbeside the 16’ frame on either side which you prefer. Using the 3/8” x 1” bolts, begin connectingthe two 8’ frames together and the 8’ frames to the 16’ frame on the front end of the dock.

(4’ x 8’ L deck) Lay the 4’ x 16’ dock section on the ground and place the 4’ x 8’ sectionbeside the 16’ frame running lengthwise as shown below. After you lay the two sectionstogether use two 3/8” x 1” bolts to fasten the front end of the dock together.

(4’ x 8’ T deck) Lay the 4’x 16’ dock section on the ground and place the 4’ x 8’ sectionlengthwise in front of the 16’ frame as shown below. Using the angle clamp brackets, clamp the8’ section to the 16’ section.

Procedure 2(Step 2) For bolting the back corner of the 4’ x 8’ dock section to the side of the 4’ x 16’section, use the bracket shown in detail A. The first step in using this bracket is to bolt the partlabeled in number 1, in detail A to the 4’ x 8’ dock section. Then using the 3/8” x 3” bolts,fasten the part labeled number 2 between the part number 1 and the 16’ dock section. When thishas been done, tighten the bolts so that part number 1 and part number 3 create a clamp with theside of the 4’ x 16’ section and part number 2 in the middle.

Procedure 3(Step 3) This step is for bolting the wheel kit bracket to the side of the 4’ x 16’ section on theopposite side of the 4’ x 8’ section. To bolt the part labeled number 1, use four 3/8” x 3” boltsand place them through the four holes on the part number 1. Next, slide the parts labeled number2 onto the bolts and fasten with 3/8” nuts. Tighten the bolts so that a clamp is formed with partnumber 1 and part number 2 with the side of the 4’ x 16’ section in the middle.

Procedure 6(Step 10) When pushing the dock into the water, make sure that the wheel kit posts are downand the support posts are all raised and tightened. Once the dock is pushed out into the water,start laying the deck sections on one at a time, upon reaching posts with the decking, lower theposts by loosening the set screws. When the posts are lowered, slip the winch brackets withwinch onto the posts, lower the hook cables and hook onto the lower tube of the dock sectionside. Crank the winch until the posts are at the desired height and tighten the set screws. Aftertightening the set screws, remove the winch from the posts and continue setting down decksections until you reach the next set of posts. Repeat this procedure until all the posts have beenadjusted and all the decking has been laid. Once all the height adjustments have been maderemove winches and put away for storage.

4’ x 4’ and 4’ x 8’ RampsDock Accessory

(Step 1) On the shore end of the dock, bolt the ramp brackets to the corners. If the shore endreceives posts, bolt the posts on top of the ramp brackets as shown below.(Step 2) The ramp will have two connecting bolts on the side of the ramp. Slip the ramp boltsinto the groove of the bracket and tighten down with a washer and locking nut.

Triangle SectionDock Accessory

*If the dock includes a corner section, use this procedureinstead of the steps on the procedure 2 sheet.

(Step 1) Using four 3/8” x 1” bolts, attach the corner section to the rear part of the 8’ x 8’ docksection.(Step 2) In the corners labeled “step 2”there will be four holes on the side of the angles facingthe 4‘ x 16‘ dock section. Insert the 3/8” x 3” bolts through the holes that are closest together.Be sure that you bolt the spacer plate between the corner section and the dock section. On theinside of the 4’ x 16’ section, place the block labeled number 2 onto the bolts and tighten. Thiswill then create a clamp for the corner section.

LadderDock Accessory

(Step 1) Locate a spot on the dock where you would like to mount the ladder an have anotherperson hold it in place. Insert four 3/8” x 3” bolts through the holes on the ladder. Place theblock labeled number 1 on the bolts and tighten, creating a clamp with the dock section in themiddle.

Quick Connect BracketsDock Accessory

(Step 1) Place the quick connect bracket on the end of the dock section at the point where youwould like the dock disconnected at. Be sure that the flanges on the quick connect brackets faceoutward. Using four 3/8” x 1 ½” bolts, connect the dock bracket on top of the quick connectbracket, as shown below.(Step 2) On the frame that will join with the quick connect brackets, bolt the ½” x 2” bolt withthe washer to the frame in the big hole on the side of the dock corner.(Step 3) Once the posts have been adjusted, slip the frame with the pegs into the quick connectbrackets.

- 17-- 17-

Dock StairsDock Accessory

(Step 1) Locate a spot on the dock where you would like to mount the dock stairs, clamp oneof the quick connect angle brackets to the dock frame. To mount the angle bracket run the boltsthrough the frame and attach the block on the inside of the frame. Tighten the bolts and nuts tosandwich the frame between the bracket and the clamp block.(Step 2) Space the other clamp the distance of the stairs and attach to the dock frame in thesame procedure as the first.
